The wind of policy is getting stronger and stronger.
In the articles I've written recently, two have been deleted consecutively.
We don't know exactly what was said that shouldn't have been said, nor do we know who filed the complaint; in any case, it was ultimately determined to be a violation of regulations and has been deleted.
Do you think I'm angry? Actually, I'm not.
Do you know what the overall situation has tightened to since the new meeting three weeks ago?
From top to bottom, pressure is transmitted layer by layer, and the pressure is also being increased layer by layer; the orange seat feels this very clearly on the front line.
Just the day before yesterday, Douyin came out with a (financial industry convention), which clearly mentioned prohibiting the packaging of illegal financial content related to virtual currency exchange services and providing information intermediary and pricing services for virtual currency transactions using concepts such as blockchain and digital assets.
Even though the crackdown targets concept packaging and business promotion content, the actual implementation is certainly stricter than lenient.
Especially when the relevant content is classified as illegal financial content by Douyin, you know this matter is not that simple.
Therefore, Juzi wisely hardly engaged with Douyin. The team did try some things internally, but in the end, we still focused on the WeChat ecosystem. This correct decision also avoided wasting a lot of time.
But after searching for a long time, Juzi couldn't precisely define what constitutes illegal financial content. If you search for this term, it only appears in the rules on Douyin.
Illegal financial activities refer to actions of conducting financial business without regulatory approval.
As for illegal financial content, it's the first time I heard about it from Juzi.
But the feeling means that as long as you post content related to these things, it is considered illegal, so Juzi asked AI about it.
Special statement: The following content is answered by Baidu Wenxin Assistant and does not represent my personal views.
Legally, there is currently no definition of illegal financial content, so it can only be defined by Douyin, but the problem is, what qualifications does Douyin have to make such definitions?
The leadership can't just say they want to crack down on illegal financial activities, and then you on Douyin need to target something that doesn't even exist legally as illegal financial content, right?
Right now, public accounts and video accounts haven't tightened their controls that much, and my article views are still decent. They only deleted two of my sensitive articles without banning my account. Should I be grateful or sulk?
Recently, I've talked with several content creators from public accounts, and they are facing the same problems.
The advantage of public accounts is that they are subject to pre-review.
If your article is sensitive and problematic, it won't be allowed to be posted. For example, after the bank president finished speaking, I made a very precise judgment, but unfortunately, it couldn't be posted and is still lying in the draft box.
If you can't post, there will be no risk, and there won't be any article deletions or account bans.
Short video platforms are different; their logic is that you post first, provide the platform with new content, anyway, the traffic belongs to the platform, and the problems are the creators' responsibilities.
At most, they will limit your video views, take it down, or ban your account.
So from this perspective, I still like public accounts a lot.
But the problem lies in what you say and your attitude.
Currently, industry-related content can still be posted, but you need to correct your attitude:
You can discuss problems and talk about technology, but it's best not to mindlessly sing praises; otherwise, you will bear the consequences.
This presents a new challenge for content creators in the industry.
But I really do enjoy challenging things.
Zuo Hui said that we should do difficult but correct things.
Duan Yongping said that we should do the right things and do things right.
Among Chinese content creators, few understand what the right things are better than me, and few possess a more firm and correct value system than I do.
In my upcoming articles, I will use more coded language and imagery, and I will also hold back my sharpness and not be so aggressive, but this is not weakness; it is an adaptation to the new situation.
Too rigid can easily break; I have passed the age of youthful recklessness and just want to continue sharing industry stories, sharing my insights, finding a group of friends with common topics, and doing some feasible construction for this industry.
If I can help some friends avoid detours in the industry, that would be even better.
I will no longer be Liu Huaqiang, nor will I be Crow Brother; I might resemble Zhang Mazi more, or some other character, but I haven't thought it through yet.
But for me, the era of gangsters shouting and killing is over.
Perhaps I should be more composed and restrained, more low-key and wise, focus on my small circle, and quietly spread my thoughts. What do you think?
